BURT RICHARDSON TELLS CHIL- 
DREN OF CERRITOS SCHOOL 
ABOUT FRENCH FRONT 


Pupils at the Cerritos Avenue 
school last Friday enjoyed quite a 
treat in a talk made by Burt Rich¬ 
ardson, son of Mrs. Ella Richardson, 
who has been enjoying a holiday fur¬ 
lough after a year spent in battery 
service with the French army on the 
French front. He exhibited many 
relics collected in the German trench¬ 
es, showed them an unexploded bomb 
of the sort dropped by the Zeppelins, 
also a gas mask which the children 
had great fun trying on. 

He told them that when a French 
soldier is off duty he can go anywhere 
in France as the French own the rail¬ 
roads and soldiers are given free 
transportation. Also, their baggage 
is not subject to inspection. When 
Mr. Richardson left for America his 
luggage was not inspected at all be¬ 
cause he was wearing the uniform of 
a French soldier. 

Another interesting item was the 
statement that no men are allowed 
on the streets or in public places un¬ 
less they are in uniform. 

He is confident of victory for the 
allies and said that in spite of their 
huge sacrifices the French people are 
more determined than ever never to 
give up the struggle until the foe has 
been defeated. 

The French, he declares, are ex¬ 
ceedingly brave as individuals and 
are ready to go over the top singly 
or in groups whereas the Germans al-1

Many registrants appeared at the 
headquarters of the Exemption Board 
Saturday afternoon and this morning 
and a fair average at the Sunday 
morning session at which Messrs. 
Mackay, Flint, Muhleman, Evans, 
Goodwin and Baker looked after 
their needs so far as help in the mak¬ 
ing out of questionnaires. Saturday 
afternoon Messrs. Muhleman, Baker, 
and Spencer and Hartley Shaw as¬ 
sisted Messrs. Flint and Mackay at 
headquarters, and this morning 
Messrs. Clewett, Flint, Mackay and 
Spencer were on duty. 

Mrs. Jackson, chief clerk, was busy 
making out vouchers for supplies 
used to be sent to Sacramento, as a 
part of the wind-up of the Board. 

The list of delinquents has been 
placed in Class 1A. and will be so re¬ 
ported today to the Adjutant Gen¬ 
eral. Seven names on the list publish¬ 
ed in the Evening News Thursday 
have been removed either because 
satisfactory affidavits have been made 
by relatives or the men themselves 
appeared and produced acceptable 
proof of service or satisfactory ex¬ 
planations of delinquency. The names 
thus far removed from the delinquent 
list are:

QUARTERMASTER’S STOREHOUSE AND COMMISSARY DE= 
STROYED AT LOSS OF $200,000 THIS MORNING 


(Special Service to Glendale Evening News) 
WASHINGTON, January 14.—Fire broke out in the Washing¬ 
ton barracks here at 9:15 a. m. this morning. A cordon of marines 
was immediately thrown about the grounds and no one was allowed 
to enter. The cause of the fire is undetermined. The quarter¬ 
master’s storehouse -and commissary building were destroyed at a 
loss of $200,000 it is estimated.

ordered forward In small groups be 
cause they refuse to go. 

He told of interviewing German 
soldiers when eleven hundred were 
taken prisoner during a battle in 
November. They were so kindly 
treated by their French captors that 
the Germans were very suspicious 
and hesitated to drink the coffee or 
eat the cakes of chocolate given them 
but hunger finally drove them to 
taste, they threw aside their helmets, 
and when the refreshment had been 
downed without any ill effects they 
all wore smiles which didn't come off 
for some time. 

He was asked about the use of li¬ 
quors and said he had never seen a 
drunken French soldier although a 
quart of light wine is a regular part 
of the daily ration, but said some of 
the German soldiers were drunk 
when taken prisoner. 

Mr. Richardson also said that when 
the troops arrived in France they 
were greeted by bands of school chil¬ 
dren and he was greatly impressed 
with the politeness of the French 
children and of the French people in 
general. 

Mr. Richardson has gone east 
en route for France and expects to be 
transferred to the American aero 
service. 


SERGEANT DAVIS DEAD 

PARENTS ADVISED OF DEATH BY 
PNEUMONIA AT FORT 
MYER 


Friends of Mr. and Mrs. Alvin T. 
Davis of Orange Grove avenue, were 
deeply grieved to learn of the death 
of their son Sergeant Lawrence Da¬ 
vis who was a member of Company 
D, Thirtieth Engineers at Fort Myer 
near Washington. D. C. About a 
week ago his parents received a let¬ 
ter from him in which he wrote that 
he had a bad cold. Sunday they re¬ 
ceived a dispatch advising them of 
his death of pneumonia and stating 
that a letter giving full particulars 
would follow. They at once wired to 
have the body forwarded to Glendale. 

Mrs. Davis is almost prostrated by 
the news. She and Mr. Davis spent 
Sunday in Hollywood with relatives 
but are expected to return to their 
home today.

(Special Service to Glendale Evening News) 
WASHINGTON. January 14.—The decision of the United States 
Court of New York convicting Alexander Berkman and Emma Gold¬ 
man, anarchists, of conspiracy against the draft law, was upheld by 
the Supreme Court in a decision made public today. This means that 
they must serve long prison sentences with five others indicted on 
similar charges. 


it is not improbable that sugar would 
have attained a 30 cent price at the 
present time. This would have meant 
for these three months a loss to the 
American consumer of $360,000,000.

DRAFTING LABOR 


There is serious talk at Washington of conscripting labor for 
war work, particularly for the construction of our new merchant 
fleet. Several senators are known to favor action by congress cor¬ 
responding to the conscription of men for the army. With the ex¬ 
perience of the first eight months of the war to judge by, they say, 
the country cannot safely leave so vital a matter to the voluntary 
patriotism of labor. 

It has been testified, in the shipping inquiry, that out of 106 
shipbuilding plants no less than thirty have had to shut down, for 
varying periods, because of strikes since we entered the war. This 
has meant a loss of 600,000 working days, equivalent to the labor of 
20,000 men for a month. The unfortunate effect of such loss at this 
time, when the production of ships is so imperative, is apparent to [ 
everyone. 

We used to point the finger of scorn at Great Britain for the | 
“disloyal” spirit shown by many of her labor groups early in the j 
war. But Sir Christopher Kent, an expert on British labor prob- j 
lems, says: “If Great Britain had one-eighth of the labor troubles 
which the United States has had since the commencement of the 
war in April, we would have been compelled to conclude a disgrace¬ 
ful peace with Germany long ago.” 

Under modern conditions, he adds, no nation can carry on war 
successfully unless there is industrial peace. That is self-evident. 
And somehow or other we must insure such peace. 

Workmen are flatly accused of “labor profiteering.” Possibly 
that charge is not quite fair. The wages they have demanded may 
be necessary and just, in view of present conditions. But it is not 
necessary or just that they should prejudice the highest interests of 
the country by striking on slight provocation. If their claims are | 
right there are other and better ways of having them considered. 

Another evil generally complained of in our war industries is j 
that workmen leave their jobs and drift about too freely. This ere-j 
ates an artificial shortage of labor and seriously handicaps many im- j 
portant enterprises. 

Soldiers do not strike for higher pay, nor for anything else. 
Soldiers do not leave their posts and drift around from one canton¬ 
ment to another. Why should war workers do these things ? 

“I cannot see,” says Senator Sherman, “that there is any moral, 
legal or theoretical difference between the government compelling ; 
American citizens to work under discipline.” 

Nobody really wants to place American labor under such com¬ 
pulsion. But it may yet be done.—Riverside Press.

President Wilson’s policy of railroad control includes; 

Appropriation of $500,000,000 as revolving fund. 

Earnings to be guaranteed on basis of past three years. 

Practical difficulties cannot be conjured away. 

Terminals to be enlarged and more equipment purchased. 

No fundamental values should anywhere be unnecessarily im¬ 
paired. 

Wages of lowest paid employes to be increased first, but no 
radical increases to any class. 

Government to make no arbitary changes and nothing tq be 
altered or disturbed which it is not necessary to disturb. 

It is right and necessary that the owners and creditors of the i 

railways, the holders of their stocks and bonds, should receive from j 
the government an unqualified guarantee that their properties will j 
be maintained throughout the period of federal control in as good j 
repair and as complete equipment as at present, and that the sev- j 
eral roads will receive under federal management such compensa-! 
tion as is equitable and just alike to their owners and to the gen¬ 
eral public. 


NEW TYPE OF PUBLIC SERVICE DEMANDED 


The great drive on the western front last April, when Hinden- 
burg retreated and forty German army corps were put* out of com¬ 
mission, was frustrated by the interference of the politicians. 

French Senators meddled with the great campaign and the re¬ 
sult was that what might have been the decisive battle of 1917 was 
not and now the cause is found to have been politics. 

It is a lesson for our country that should teach the people to 
demand patriotism instead of party service, to demand that men of 
the highest type serve in public office for honor and duty’s sake. 

The President is still calling for men like Copper King Jackling, 
who has taken the post of Chief of the Explosives department for a j 
dollar a year, to serve the nation in its time of necessity. 

Thousands of such men are giving their time to the nation to! 
help solve the great problems developed by the war period, and the! 
people should follow the example and demand the highest type in j 
state affairs. 

Popular government is at stake. Taxes must be kept down. [ 
Industries must he kept going. This is not the time for the demagog j 
and selfish plotter to get his hand into the pockets of the taxpayer. 

Men must be found to go to the legislature and to serve in city 
and county governments whose minds are above the shady trickery 
of spoils politics, and the indecency of. stirring up class hatred. 

The call for service as a patriotic duty in state and nation is 
urgent and is voiced by the press of the whole country—give us the 
new type of public servant who forgets self-interest. 


IDAHO LANDS HARD ON AGITATORS 


Idaho has the distinction of being the first state in the Union 
to place behind a state’s prison bars a man convicted of criminal 
syndicalism and sabotage. He is J. Ottis Ellis, sentenced to serve 
from 1 to 14 years at hard labor for attempting to influence laboring 
men to strike and damage property unless paid wages they de¬ 
manded. The last legislature passed a statute under which Ellis 
was sent to the penitentiary. His incarceration is a warning to 
others within this state who, by word of mouth or distribution of 


propaganda, attempt to incite others to commit acts of violence. 
Ellis is a Socialist and leans toward the teachings of the Industrial 
Workers of the World, who have been active in this state. 


When men were going into a logging camp in Clearwater 
county recently, they were hailed by Ellis as “brothers,” asked what 
wages they expected to receive and, when informed, he branded 
them as too low. This particular logging camp was cutting logs 
the length of a railroad tie, a large contract to supply them to a 
carrier being held by the contractor. 

Ellis urged the men to strike for higher wages and if these 
were refused to cut the logs a foot short. Had the instructions been 
followed by the loggers, the contractor would have been ruined. 
They told the camp boss of Ellis’s activities, and his arrest and con¬ 
viction followed. 

If a few more states adonted such measures there would be 
fewer lawless acts.

LIEUTENANT’S CUNNING WON 
SAMMY’S CONFIDENCE 


By J. W. PEGLER 
(Linited Press Staff Correspondent) 

AMERICAN FIELD HEADQUAR¬ 
TERS, FRANCE, Dec. 16. (By Mail.) 
“I’ll follow Mr. Short anywhere.” 

A young, slightly huilt Sammy paid 
this tribute to his lieutenant within 
a few hours after his arrival back 
from the trenches. He was sitting on 
a mile post at the roadside, before 
the barn where he sleeps, oiling the 
rifle that he carried in night patrols 
into No Man’s Land with Mr. Short. 

The lieutenant himself was mak¬ 
ing an informal inspection of his 
men—an inspection that seemed 
more like a friendly visit. As he pass¬ 
ed on down the muddy lane, the sol¬ 
dier let his eyes wander after him 
admiringly. 

“Mr. Short discovered that the 
barbed wire in front of our sector 
had been cut during the night,” said 
the youngster “I supposed he would 
send for the engineers to come up the 
next evening and put new wires in 
the hole. But the lieutenant was a 
wise man—he said ‘no.’ 

“All day we lay in the dugouts 
with our shoes and socks and breech¬ 
es soaked and no dry clothes to put 
on. Another bunch stood watch in the 
little ditch of a front line, keeping 
their heads down and ready with 
their rifles and a machine gun in case 
the old Boche would come over. 

“At five o’clock in the evening Mr. 
Short woke us up. We had a cup of 
scalding coffee and started up the 
communicating trench. It was rain¬ 
ing and snowing and the water in the 
communication trench was up to your 
ankles over the duckboards. 


“It got dark early and the snow 
was so thick in the air you couldn’t 
see the wire from the front trench. 

“Mr. Short stopped us in the front 
line and explained what we were go¬ 
ing to do. He had it figured out that 
the enemy cut those wires last night 
so he could make a raid tonight. And 
if he didn’t intend to raid, he would 
certainly expect our engineers to be 
out fixing the hole—and would pot 
’em. 

“Our job was to crawl out under 
the wire on both sides of the hole. 
Mr. Short went out first and placed 
every man in position. We waited five 
hours. Then we saw a figure about 
fifteen yards away. I asked him to 
let me shoot. He said no and went at 
that object himself. 

“And what do you think it was? 
Just an old post. We had all been 
staring at it so long that we were 
sure we saw it creeping. Well, the 
enemy potted away at the hole in five 
minute spells almost all night, and 
didn’t hit a single American. Mr. 
Short simply outguessed him. And 
when there was a chance for some¬ 
one to get hurt, he tok ’the chance 
himself rather than give away our 
position by having me fire.” 

Mr. Short, be it known, is an old 
“top sergeant.” 

“They didn't get me in the Phil¬ 
ippines and they won’t get me in 
France,” he said to his command. 

The Sammy finished cleaning the 
gun and gave the bolt a concluding 
snap. 

“A good gun is like a good watch,” 
he remarked reflectively. “Treat it 
the ole Boche would come over, 
know something about both. I work¬ 
ed two years in the Waltham watch 
factory and six months in the Rem¬ 
ington arms plant.”

THE PEOPLE ARE SAVING 


It has been pointed out as evidence 
of how strongly the duty of saving 
had been impressed upon the English 
people by the war-savings campaign 
in that country that in the year 1916 
although purchasing billions of dol¬ 
lars of war bonds, the small savings- 
bank depositors in England increas¬ 
ed their deposits in savings banks 
over $60,000,000, this in face of the 
fact that the English have been noted 
as a spending rather than as a sav¬ 
ing people. 

It seems that a similar process has 
taken place in America. Two great 
Liberty Loans were floated in the year 
just closing, and nearly $6,000,000,- 
000 of Liberty Loan Bonds were pur¬ 
chased by the people. Yet instead of 
being depleted the savings-banks de¬ 
posits of the country have been in¬ 
creased. The president of one of the 
large New York savings banks is 
quoted as saying on December 20, 
1917: 

“One of the most remarkable 
things about the Liberty Loan cam¬ 
paigns is the small effect they have 
had on the savings banks accounts, 
which show an increase. This we lay 
to the appeals made to the American 
people to purchase the bonds out of 
their earnings, paying for them from 
week to week or from month to 
month. The people appear to be do¬ 
ing as they have been urged, pur¬ 
chasing the bonds from current sav¬ 
ings.”

Mrs. Edgar W. Pack of 430 South 
Adams street, has returned after 
visiting Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Allen of 
Van Nuys. Mrs. Pack was the special 
guest at several functions given in 
her honor and greatly enjoyed re¬ 
newing acquaintance with old friends. 

Mr. and Mrs. T. M. E. Hamilton of 
River Falls, Wis., have just arrived 
and are guests of Mr. Hamilton’s sis¬ 
ter, Mrs. H. A. Wilson and family at 
325 S. Louise. The Hamiltons will 
probably spend the remainder of the 
winter seeing Southern California. 

Mrs. P. M. Peterson, sister of Miss 
Myra Bartlett of 231 South Louise 
street, who has been residing in 
Glendale on Pioneer Drive, for the 
past year, moved Friday to McFar¬ 
land, where her husband is develop¬ 
ing a ranch. Mrs. Peterson has made 
many friends here who regret her de¬ 
parture. 

Mrs. A. P. Knight of 317 W. Sec¬ 
ond street, has had a letter from her 
son. Gunner A. W. Knight, announc¬ 
ing his safe arrival after a number of 
delays at Fortress Monrose, in Vir¬ 
ginia, where he enters the officers’ 
training camp. He left here the Fri¬ 
day before New Years and was very 
well at the time he wrote. 

In a news item published Saturday 
to the effect that Charles W. Letts, 
son of Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Letts of 
Glendale had been admitted to the 
new officers’ training school at Camp 
Lewis, the statement was made that 
young Letts was nineteen years old. 
It should have read that he was nine¬ 
teen when he enlisted a year ago last 
May. 


DIANDO FIVE-REEL FEATURE METHODISTS INAUGURATE DRIVE 


FILM REQUIRES 300 PEOPLE 
IN THE CAST 

The lot at the Dlando Film Cor¬ 
poration, Pathe release, was crowd¬ 
ed Saturday with spectators watch¬ 
ing the filming of the western scenes 
in “A Daughter of the West,” the 
new five reel feature with Baby Marie 
Osborne as the star. 

There were about 300 people in 
the cast and it kept one of the Glen¬ 
dale eatatoriums busy providing the 
noon day lunch for this hungry out¬ 
fit. There were over 50 scenes taken 
in this western village, and they ran 
the entire gamut from peaceful bus¬ 
iness to a bank holdup. The man¬ 
ager, Mr. Norman Manning, was per¬ 
fectly frantic over the way high pric¬ 
ed ammunition was burned up in the 
holdup scenes and kept repeating in 
loud tones ‘‘those cartridges cost $40 
a thousand, boys.” The cowboys were 
deaf to his entreaties and declared 
they used no more powder than was 
necessary in an event of this kind. 

The company has been off on “lo¬ 
cation” several days this week and 
visited Long Beach, Pasadena, Eagle 
Rock, and made one trip back into 
the mountains. 

After the plans of President W. A. 
S. Douglas had been announced for 
the employment of a landscape gard¬ 
ener to beautify the grounds in front 
of the studio, Norman Manning stat- 


A new message from the war zone 
will be brought by Mrs. A. L. Ange- 
lini, who will speak at the Glendale 
Presbyterian church Tuesday even¬ 
ing at 7:30 o’clock. Mrs. Angelini has 
been in Italy since her girlhood and 
is able to give many interesting de¬ 
tails of war conditions there. A gen¬ 
eral invitation is extended to all citi¬ 
zens to attend this meeting. 


FOR U. OF S. C. ENDOW¬ 
MENT 


Sunday was a day set aside for the 
Methodists of Southern California to j 
inaugurate a drive in the interest of 
Christian education by and through 
the medium of the University of 
Southern California. In compliance 
with the Bishop’s request that there 
be an exchange of pulpits, Rev. B. D. 
Snudden of the First Methodist 
church and Rev. B. C. Cory of the 
Tropico Methodist church exchanged 
pulpits for the morning service. This 
was Rev. Cory’s first introduction to 
the First church and he made a very 
favorable impression. 

Having been a member of the 
Board of Trustees of the University 
for the past 24 years he is unusually 
well qualified to speak on the sub¬ 
ject. 

“During these twenty-four years,’ 
said the speaker, “the enterprise of 
establishing a university to dissemi¬ 
nate Christian education in Southern 
California has met with many re¬ 
verses and oftentimes it was propos¬ 
ed to abandon it. But the difficulties 
were finally met by faith and sacri¬ 
fice upon the part of the trustees and 
others. Under the wise and able lead¬ 
ership of Dr. Bovard and the united 
support of the Board of Trustees 
with God’s blessings, the university 
has prospered until it is the third

ENGLISH FOOD WASTERS 


Unfounded criticism that the allied 
countries are doing little to repay 
America’s millions for their sacrifices 
in saving food, is answered in infor¬ 
mation received today by the United 
States Food Administration for Cali¬ 
fornia, showing the stringent regula¬ 
tions and heavy penalties against 
waste and hoarding throughout the 
British Isles. 

The following authentic instances 
of punishment meted out to offend¬ 
ers in England were made public to¬ 
day by the food administration. 


THE BOOKWORM TERNS

To some children books are books, 
To others, with brains to see, 

A book is either a work of art 
Or of mediocrity. 


ADVICE TO WAR GARDENERS 

Clean culture plays a most import¬ 
ant part in the fight which must be 
waged against the insects which men¬ 
ace the success of the home garden¬ 
er's efforts. Cleaning off the rub¬ 
bish left over from last season's 
| gardening aids materially in reduc¬ 
ing the number of the overwintering 
forms of the insect enemies of the 
vegetable garden, whose activities 
are only too great in any case. 

Cutworms, which hide in the soil 
in the day time and come out at 
night to feed on the tender growth 
and cut small plants entirely off,

And all because of an innocent little

Before Congress took the final

Embassy acted as the clearing house 
for affluent Greeks and Russian Jews 
in this country. Monies sent to war 
sufferers in Poland. Galicia, Russia, 
Palestine and the Balkans was trans¬ 
mitted through it. 

King Alphonso's emissaries even 
acted as a "Lost and Found" column.

HOME OF A WORKINGMAN 

The mechanic who eats underdone

over by a discontented wife is not a 
good investment for his employer. 
Bad home are as great an enemy to 
industrial improvements as bad hab¬ 
its. says Ida M. Tarbell in "New 
i Ideals in Business.” 

"Competition itself is forcing em¬ 
ployers to consider the outside life of 
their employees," says Miss Tarbell. 
"The first and most important thing 
they must consider is the house the 
man lives in. A good workingman 
wants a home. He wants if possible j 
to own his home. To have efficient, 
trustworthy and steady men you 
must have healthy and contented 
men. Men are neither healthy nor 
contented in wretched homes."

He began figuring on a ful supply

I People thought him eccentric when 
he insisted that every Marine who 
came to him for relief from a tooth¬

ONE ON A PARSON 

A parson, noted for his absent- 
mindedness, had a habit of forgetting 
something he intended to say in the 
pulpit. Then, after sitting down, he 
would rise up again and begin his 
supplementary remarks with. "By 
the way." 

Recently he finished his prayer, 
hesitated, forgot what he was about, 
and sat down abruptly without clos¬ 
ing. In a moment, however, he arose,
